Ah, after a month of work, four month hiatus, and half a month of finishing up, it's arrived. The first installment of ABYSMAL ADVENTURES.

In a contemporary world of fantasy filled with magic and mystical creatures, a wizard sparks one young man's journey into adulthood with a bang for his good deed. Come laugh and learn with Wojtek as he battles orcs, goblins, and his own helpless retardation!

***Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the song snippets and some select sound effects used in the animation. I'm not claiming that they are my own nor am I attempting to make a profit off of them. It's all in good fun and used to enhance the entertainment value of the overall project, so please understand and enjoy!

EDIT: damn, I always thought it'd be cool if this were frontpage'd, but never thought it'd happen because, well, yknow- it's not exactly "GOLD, JERRY!" So big thanks to voice actor Mick Lauer for bringing this to Tom's attention and giving it a spot to be enjoyed, even if it gets pulled down after a day or something.

EDIT2: Dude, I just watched it for the first time since I finished it and realized I misspelled RicePirate. Name changed! (But that's all that's new, the slow pace is still there unfortunately!)

EDIT3 (11/28/16): Boof, been a while. Where'd all this body hair come from? If anyone somehow finds/revisits this, I was informed it'd be best for Newgrounds for me to swap out the copyrighted music due to potential legality shenanigans (SURPRISE). With the original audio files currently lost, there are rough patches in the VO during the musical scenes, but some lines have been outright re-recorded while the SFX in those scenes have been mostly replaced. All has been given tape distortion to match the original crappy audio for maximum phoniness.

Excellent!

I really enjoyed this Animation, some nice new ideas and some great Animating. Voice acting and timing were perfect.
I especially liked the part where he thinks to himself (Don't read this if you haven't watched the Animation already) 'I realised that Subway Train should've killed me'. Very funny and great timing.
I do agree with some people, that at times it was slow, but I didn't mind. It set a good pace for the Animation.

a bit mundane

you did a nice job animating and the story line was pretty good but you took too long to transition the flash from one point to another. It gets boring watching a hand move for 30seconds. also the sound quality was a bit lacking.
